Baked Pork Loaf Recipe

: Soak mushrooms in hot water for 40 minutes. Squeeze out liquid, remove stems, and chop the tops very finely. Place mushrooms and green onions (scallions) and pork in a bowl. Add Nuoc Cham (fish sauce), eggs, salt and pepper to taste and combine thoroughly. Grease a loaf pan, add meat mixture, patting down firmly. Cover with foil, sealing well. In a larger roasting pan, pour hot water to half way up the loaf pan and place in moderately hot oven 400 o F/200 o C for about 60 minutes or until done. Test with knife or skewer which should come out cleanly from the center. Allow the loaf to cool a little, run knife around the pan sides then unmold. Slice and garnish with coriander (cilantro) leaves.
